Dr. Deborah O. Day, Psy.D; offers critical context in the wake of the recent incident where two juveniles, age 12 and 14, ran away from a Volusia County group home and, armed with multiple weapons, opened fire on deputies. With decades of experience in forensic evaluations and child abuse cases, Dr. Day emphasizes that this tragic scenario points to deeper systemic failures instead of simple criminal actions. Prior history shows multiple interactions with law enforcement and child welfare agencies, creating a backdrop of trauma, instability, and unmet mental health needs.
